An out-of-left-field option, if your goal is only to make some money working with ML: go into independent game design and create a game around a ML system.
It's not something mainstream gaming would be interested in using because the goals are different - there the development process is enslaved to some well-defined intellectual property, and (with rare exceptions) does not roam freely enough to allow more than a "good-enough AI opponent" - but if you developed a concept and brought it to market yourself, making sure that the result is fun to play and easy to learn, as well as a good use of tech, you have a shot at a decent revenue stream. Probably not enough to live on, but the beauty of independent gaming is that you can keep revising and expanding on an innovative concept, gradually growing your own market over a period of many years.
- kurtosis 19y agohow about an online "hot-or-not" type of game for docs where you are given the same diagnostic information that would be given to a cardiologist and you can see if you can beat the decision tree? I think someone made something like this not too long ago for stock prices vs. random walks..
- yters 19y agoHere's a ML game that I think would be cool: The idea is genetic programming with human interaction based around a Pokemon kind of game. There would be pre-made and player made pets, and a "wild" area where creatures could evolve.
